Hydraulic complex formed by a Roman aqueduct over the Aigualit ravine, which carried water from the Sant Josep fountain for irrigation until the 1950s, and a smaller medieval aqueduct. Two hydraulic mills were located next to both. The Roman aqueduct alternates semicircular and pointed arches. Roman aqueduct built to bridge the Aigualit ravine and convey water from the Sant Josep fountain (https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acueductos_de_San_Jos%C3%A9_y_Alcudia). It is preserved complete, used for irrigation until the 1950s (https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acueductos_de_San_Jos%C3%A9_y_Alcudia). It alternates semicircular and pointed arches due to repairs over time (https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acueductos_de_San_Jos%C3%A9_y_Alcudia). Next to a second medieval aqueduct it moved two hydraulic mills (https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acueductos_de_San_Jos%C3%A9_y_Alcudia). It is located on Carretera de Sant Josep, La Vall d'Uixó.
